And this is hardly the first time there has been weather at augusta and the greens were soft. 

Yeah but there hasn't been weather since the tournament started. I've never seen Augusta play as soft and forgiving as it did on Thursday. Drives were plugging into the fairway.

That should have rolled 20 yards further

50 years of watching the Masters and never knew about getting crystal for making eagles.

They also give them for low round of the day, holes in one, double eagles.

They got over an inch of rain between Wednesday and Thursday morning. Shit just isn't going to dry out quick with that much water this time of year. 

But it poses other problems.   Lots of screwy flights from mud balls and trying to control spin coming into greens. 

Hopefully it continues to dry out and the edges of the greens get more penal tomorrow.

completely different deal these days with drivers going 350

Soft, wet fairways should affect the roll on long drives though. 

[Sgt Hulk 13742]

165 yards to the pin and DJ is dropping it with a 9 iron. Just damn

Did someone get a hole in one?

so much yelling before Ancer’s fairway shot a moment ago.

I have seen the hole in one awards, not sure how I missed the rest.

Justin Thomas seems like a bitch, is he?

Augusta National security probably killed that person or something 

[hookem48 4689]

obviously no crowd is the strangest thing of all

Nice F-Bomb from Spieth on his Drive on 5th Tee...  😂😂😂

He’s a little odd-looking. The large Polo logo on his shirt makes him look like an awkward little boy.

He’s one of the best dudes out there. 

[ztejas 43464]

Yikes Reed. No idea what he was going for there.

[ztejas 43464]

I wish we could get a live feed of what DJ is thinking on each shot, or while he walks down the fairway.

"Man, I haven't had chik-fil-a in a minute. I wonder how late they're open? I bet they got a new shake flavor. Ima see if I can get extra cherries on my shake"

And here's DJ to save par on 17...

[ztejas 43464]

54 hole scoring record is -16 set by Spieth in 2015.

A couple of quotes from this week

He had to wake up just after 4 a.m. to start this long Friday. Is that a problem? He tilted his head and thought.

“I just get up when I have to get up,” he said.

McIlroy accurately described Johnson’s approach thus: “See ball, hit ball. See putt, hole putt. Go to the next.”

Speith’s 64-66 to start that tourney was some of the best golf ever

Gonna be really hard to beat DJ when he’s putting like this.

I would love for a reporter to ask Tiger how DJ is doing this in these types of conditions? It must be superhuman right TW?

yeah he seems like a very good dude. Him calling Barkley fat ass  was funny as shit during the Brady/Manning thing.  It would be easier to watch him killing it if our guy could get his shit together.

You are not wrong; but who would have ever thought his putting game would get to this point?

Especially after his 3-puut on the 72nd hole at Chambers Bay

[StruggleBus 3922]

Yeah DJ is putting well, but he’s winning right now because his driver and iron play is world class.

Hope DJ has a meltdown tomorrow.  If he takes a triple somewhere on the front this thing could get really fun.  I doubt it happens with the way he’s playing, but that would make for the most entertaining afternoon.

Absolutely he is.   But his putting over the past year has turned him from a great, dangerous player into a world class assassin that’s at the top of the board every weekend.  

[Dewey 3286]

His new normal is motherfuck'in badass, dude cruised through the FedEx, being the Masters,  he might have some nerves, but if he goes out with early birdies, over. 

[Mileslong 4727]

Bryson and DJ currently each have one major. Who do y’all think will have more in ten years?

DJ of course...

Just watched this, god damn this guy is probably the best pure athlete to ever play the sport.

 

I wanna say he cruises tomorrow but we all know that there's not good history with him on Sundays in majors. Honestly hope he pulls it off, he could reel off a few with the way he's been at it.

He's just pissed because he knows this tourney/course is the only shot he has to catch Jack, and even that's going to get much tougher in the future, and liquid nitrogen temp chance he does it in another major.

[Jive Turkey 12609]

If DJ brings his “A” game, nobody can beat him, even if they’re all on their “A” game. He’s just that supremely talented. 

Thank god Wayne Gretzky got in his ear and helped him focus on being serious about being great. Who knows where DJ would have ended up if not for the Great One. 

[Jive Turkey 12609]

Having said that, this isn’t over. Too much funky shit happens on the back nine at Augusta on Sunday.

His ability to flight it and work it both ways with the driver while still killing it just puts him head and shoulders above the field. Especially at augusta. 

Yeah,  it's neat to watch bryson hit it 200 feet in the air and sail it, but that also cost him a triple yesterday.

Saw this today:

 

Bernhard Langer has now competed in a major against both Gene Sarazen (born 1902) and Abel Gallegos (born 2002). In case math isn’t your strong suit, those two people were born 100 years apart!
